Three priests suspended over homosexuality accusations have sued the Anglican Church of Kenya trustees.

The reverends John Njogu Gachau, Paul Mwangi Warui and James Maina accused the trustees of not adhering to the church's constitution and the rules of natural justice when they took action against them.

They had earlier sued the church commissioners for defamation and wrongful termination of employment, but the suit was amended when the commissioners said they did not employ the clergy.

The pastors are represented by Wonge Maina and Onsare partners law firm.

They argued that the Mt Kenya West Diocese disciplinary committee did not follow the right procedure when suspending them.
